Wedding Anniversary Celebrating
The weekend was beautiful. Very relaxing. We enjoyed the view from the room and slept well. We were not happy with the food. All state park food has not been good since Covid. The buffet has always been a family favorite but not this time. Staff was pleasant and eager to make our stay pleasant.

Wonderful view
The view was wonderful. The room was dark, quiet and great for sleep. The room is very clean, but seriously dated. No USB or refrigerator. Tiny TV by today's standards. Dining room hours were not convenient. They were open 11 - 2 somedays, 11 -3, 11-7. The exterior lighting was mostly out, leaving the walkways and parking lot very dark.
